Review: Tasty, familiar, lower calories and sodium - I grew up in the South of an Appalachian mom and in a very modest home. Spam, and to a lesser degree its competitor Treet, were often on the table. As an adult, I stopped eating meat and was eventually a strict vegan for 11 years, modifying to pescatarian just in the last few. But there has always been this part of my comfort food memory associated with the deliciously greasy, salty, slightly sweet canned luncheon meat that has never been satisfied by anything else. Until now. It is gratifyingly salty but not so much as Spam, having only 34% of the sodium per serving. It has enough fat to stand on its own in the frying pan, but 6 grams less. And 50 fewer calories to boot, although to be honest I don’t think many buying this would be primarily interested in how it’s a healthier alternative. What matters to most consumers including me, is the flavor, texture and versatility. So far, I have used it just fried for sandwiches, cooked “Hawaiian style” with pineapple and teriyaki, diced into chef salad, in potato soup, as a side to eggs, and tossed into noodles. Basically I’ve recreated all those struggle meals that seemed so great to me as a kid. And it stands up to everything. It fills the intended niche almost perfectly. Nothing about it would make it deserving of a full star off but it’s always fair when comparing products to give downsides if applicable. It’s slightly more expensive than Spam. When frying, it doesn’t get as crispy, although it does quite well. And the reduced sodium could be a letdown for some, although for me it’s a plus for health reasons. Truly it’s one of the best meat substitutes I’ve ever used and I’ve tried a lot over the last 15 years. My photo is a whole loaf, baked for 30 minutes at 400°F in a frying pan.
Review: Tastes very similar to chicken in my opinion - This is incredibly tasty. I have used it in sales, in soup, as a mock chicken salad, and have yet to be disappointed. Almost too good to be true, really. I’ve been eating plant-based food for the last year, and this is the closest to the taste of actual chicken that I’ve experienced. UPDATE: I am still enjoying this product! I've added a picture showing a side-by-side comparison of the 6.25 oz. can with other products, for reference.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tastes Great, The Texture Is Close but Not Quite the Same
*by A***R on 13 April 2026*

As a Boomer, I can't see this product, or the brand name pig based product for which this substitutes, without the bit from Monty Python running through my head. I do have one minor gripe, not enough to dock a *, but it isn't ready to eat out of the can. I also wish it were available in smaller quantities, but it's getting used. I was never a huge fan of the pig based version of this, but every once in a while I would get a hankerin' for it. But I quit eating pork decades ago, (now I'm a vegetarian, but not vegan) and quite frankly, the commercials are quite effective. So I broke down and got the big box without knowing if I'd like it. This stuff tastes great. The texture isn't quite the same, this one is less rubbery and just a tiny bit gritty. Not a huge difference, but it is different. Fried up as a side... alternative to sausage at breakfast, cooked in an omelet, (again, not a vegan), I've even had it with pasta. And of course, sandwiches. So as versatile as the pig based product. And it doesn't have that foul pig smell like bacon or sausage, but then again, a good grade of ham doesn't either. Bottom line, if you like vegetable based meat, most likely you'll like this one. I do wish it came in smaller quantities, though.
